Obama To Romney: The 1980s Called — They Want Their Foreign Policy Back (VIDEO)

President Obama blasted Mitt Romney at the foreign policy debate, saying he had given no correct answers on national security.

"Gov. Romney, I'm glad you recognize al-Qaeda is a threat, because a few months ago when you were asked what is the biggest geopolitical group facing America, you said Russia — not al-Qaeda. And the 1980's are now calling to ask for their foreign policy back — because the Cold War has been over for 20 years. But Governor, when it comes to our foreign policy, you seem to want to import the foreign policies of the 1980's, just like the social policy of the 1950's, and the economic policies of the 1920's.

"You say that you're not interested in duplicating what happened in Iraq but just a few weeks ago, you said you think we should have more troops in Iraq right now. And the challenge we have, I know you haven't been in a position to actually execute foreign policy, but every time you've offered an opinion, you've been wrong. You said we should have gone into Iraq despite the fact there were no weapons of mass destruction. You said that we should still have troops in Iraq to this day. You indicated that we shouldn't be passing nuclear treaties with Russia despite the fact that 71 senators, Democrats and Republicans, voted for it. You said that first we should not have a time line in Afghanistan. Then you said we should. Now you say maybe. Or it depends. Which means not only were you wrong but you're also confusing in sending mixed messages to our troops and our allies.

"So what we need to do with respect to the middle east is strong, steady leadership, not wrong and reckless leadership that is all over the map. And unfortunately, that is the kind of opinions that you've offered throughout this campaign. And it is not a recipe for american strength or keeping america safe."
